Breaking: Is Tom Brady hurt?

You know what happens when I make the mistake of putting on Good Morning America for some national news? I nearly cough up a Pop-Tart when they start showing video of Tom Brady limping around in a supposed walking boot.

Yet there he was, appearing on a TMZ.com video you can see here. Personally, I think there is something very, very wrong when I'm on TMZ for football news, but that's just the way things are for now.

The Boston Herald reported that Brady -- flowers in hand -- was visiting the apartment of his girlfriend, Gisele Bundchen.

During his weekly radio show on WEEI, Brady did not deny that he suffered some sort of injury during Sunday's win over the San Diego Chargers in the AFC Championship Game.

"Ah, you know, there's always bumps and bruises. I'll be ready for the Super Bowl," Brady said. "I'm not worried about that. I'm not missing this one. I'd have to be on a stretcher to miss this one. There will be treatment this week. In games like this, you get a little nicked up. It's nothing serious."

Patriots spokesman Stacey James wrote in an e-mail to the AP late Monday night that the team had no comment on the photos.

I have no explanation -- no words, really -- to explain what's going on. Obviously, an injury would help explain Brady's abysmal play Sunday. Now, the question is obvious: How serious is it, and will it be an issue two weeks from now?
